The church is located on 16 Centerville Church Rd. in the town of Saugerties. At the time of its construction the area was called Unionville and it was called the Unionville Methodist Episcopal Church. The church was formed in 1871 by Rev. J. H. Wood and incorporated in 1872. The church building was originally in Glasco and moved to its present location in 1871. The church hall was built in 1912 (The Town of Saugerties New York Historic Resources Survey, March 2005 and History of Ulster County New York by Nathaniel Bartlett Sylvester, 1977).
